stackhouse 3 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 How good or bad a country is has **** all to do with money, if you want money, it's easily attainable all you have to do is work. It's quite clear that the UK is the better place to live, frankly, it ****s all over the USA. In my opinion, the USA lacks character and history, the houses are ugly, the laws are unintelligible, the education is bizzare and it just generally would be **** to live their compared to the UK !!! Honestly, we have free health care, a free education system where everyone is given the opportunity to attend University and a rich history and culture. The US is full of religious nutjobs and psychos shooting up playschools and cinemas. I'm glad I don't live there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but the facts about GDP and stuff are interesting. Obviously money isn't everything when it comes to how living somewhere is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when it's made so easy and they compare a great country with the US Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Economy 52,951 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 But Britain is not even that rich. If you look at its GDP on a Per Capita basis im not even sure it cracks the top 20 and if it does its close to the bottom And the US in proportional terms (wealth per citizen) is not the richest but i believe its in the low top 10s/ high top 20s according to most rankings It does have a bigger income gap than most developed Countries tho so i dont know if the average middle class person is necessairily better in the States than in many other Developed Nations :shrug: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
